But yeah, I always viewed the cutting of Smitty to help allow Cam take over. 

I was completely fine with it and was THRILLED when we drafted Benji. 

Benjamin looks like he got serious about his weight from what they reported. I think it was overblown to begin with though

It's sad, but I believe it. Smitty is a hothead. The way he is is what made him great, but the panthers dealt with his crap for a long time. I love him, but Gettleman got it right when he released him. I'll never forget him sucker punching Kenny Lucas. That's when my view of him started to change

I never said he wasn't, usually fight takes atleast between  2 ;) but Cam was naive as an young rookie Senior put him in his place?

This doesn't sound like a fight. It sounds like he punched him just like he did Lucas. But all of this stuff is unsubstantiated. Huddle TMZ

I believe it. Makes sense on timing of its release, now that Gettleman is not with the team, the source would be more willing to spill it. Crazy they could cover it up, but our team generally does a good job of keeping in-house things hushed up.

 

Wish we had more details about how Cam fought back. Smith is tough, but don't tell me Cam couldn't have done some damage back.

Its all about growing as a person & a team if it happened it was for a good reason in the end.
